Tekken 8 Leo Kliesen Beginner & Advanced Combo Guide

[@xenonmch2396]

I have been looking for a leo beginner guide for the longest time and you also included button inputs tyvm! As a zero fighting gamer who just join the tekken fray i appreciate this

[@Madara-en9oi]

No worries man glad to help out. That was my intention with the overlay. If you have any questions feel free to ask ^^

[@fleepity]

​@@Madara-en9oity very much for the input display I watched some guides and instead of writing it all out they showed each move in slowmo and said what It was I just had to write the sequence down myself

[@Madara-en9oi]

yeah that takes too long to learn xD. back then i also used to write it out but i think this is the best and easiest way to learn combos.@@fleepity

[@fleepity]

@@Madara-en9oi ye

[@MeepMeep193]

Does anyone else watch these and constantly go back and forth between their phone and the game?

[@Kiwivores]

Yes me too

[@geekchicken6320]

When you learn all these cool combos and then blank out during a real match 😂

[@Madara-en9oi]

Yh whenever you learn a new character its all about muscle memory. The more you play and try out the easier it gets ^^

[@geekchicken6320]

@Madara-en9oi Yeah definitely! Sometimes you gotta improvise too. I'm really good with Leo already but I just like seeing what other people come up with and learning from them :)

[@Madara-en9oi]

I agree 100%. I also only picked up Leo in Season 4 of Tekken 7 and have barely any tournament experience. its fun to learn it now with a fresh game.

[@onlythestrong8659]

Great combos. Some of these long combos works only for some stages. If the stage isn’t big enough it’s impossible to finish them.

[@Madara-en9oi]

yh thats true. always have to adapt and shorten the combo depending on where you are on the stage.@@onlythestrong8659

[@thedarkwonder9954]

Thanks for taking the time out to give us these Leo videos. I've played Tekken casually since Tekken 1. Tekken 7 was a bit more frustrating for myself personally. I told myself I want to get "decent" at a Tekken game for once....In my 40s. I'm making my way. I feel like Tekken is a college course. I have notes in my notebook and all thank to you and AyoRichie. Your videos are a bit more detailed and give me a good foundation to how I think I want to progress with this character on my own terms. Plus your background music to your combo video is soothing hahaha. Thanks again.

[@Madara-en9oi]

Thank you for this nice response really grateful for that :) Yeah im playing Tekken since im a little kid but got into it more with Tekken 7. Having arround 6 years of experience playing in Online and offline tournaments and meeting a lot of new friends. Over all these years i learned a lot and with videos like this i want people to also learn and have a great time in this game ^^

[@alskeltal611]

Great video! For tornadoes, whenever you go for F4, crouch dash, U1, it's possible to get 1 more damage out of the easier input F4, (knk)1+2

[@TheTotallyNoob]

a bit late just wanna say thx for the guide, im totally new to tekken and I feel like the easy CPU would be better than me lmao, I was just looking for a guide and these 2 detailing easy strings/BnBs and the other guide of yours detailing tools for For example Neutral Tools I appreciate lots

[@JokeZ1337]

Man leo's combo game is very creative, love it. I'm still rocking his T7 combos atm, but i'll steal some of the routes you showed :^)

[@Nounou-pz6ty]

Thank u for the tutorial really helpful ! Hope to seeing more leo tutorials in the future

[@Madara-en9oi]

Im thinking about doing a Leo Guide for Beginner and also one thats advanced but im not sure yet. I might do one very soon.

[@Madara-en9oi]

And also thank you for the kind words ^^

[@quantumninja9936]

I'm relatively new to fighting games and I picked up leo (fun so far!). What combo do you suggest I should try learning first and should stick with for a bit while I learn the game and can pick up the rest?

[@MeepMeep193]

Just finally got the second one. I’m terrible on timing and memory 😂

[@JW-pu1uk]

This is so dope! Do you know which ones are the most optimal? I only know how to do the first combo, but definitely need to try some of the others.

[@Madara-en9oi]

Thank you man. So in my opinion the second and third Combo is optimal and the one i usually use because with the first combo there are Moments where the jab can whiff if its off axis so not always working. When it comes to damage the third one is really good.

[@JW-pu1uk]

This helped a lot! I'm still a beginner so going to lab those hard today. Fantastic content here and it's appreciated more than you know! @@Madara-en9oi

[@Madara-en9oi]

@@JW-pu1uk thanks for the kind words bro. If you need any help let me know

[@JW-pu1uk]

Back again! At the 2nd combo @ 0:11, are you supposed to crouch cancel at the end of the second set? I'm talking about the combo that looks like forward, 2 , 4, then diagonal then into WS 3. Anytime I try this, or try the CC on the third combo, I end up just getting an attack that is sorta like a down swipe (it hits low). I'm doing something incorrectly. Is it true you're supposed to only just press diagonal? English is not my first language so hopefully this makes sense.

[@Madara-en9oi]

if you mean that upwards punch basically you have to let go of all your directional inputs and then press up1 together. if you press it too early you will get that low swipe.

[@PirateJamm]

How do you guys remember all this 😭 As a complete beginner trying Leo there’s no guides out there explaining to dummies or complete beginners 😭

[@MeepMeep193]

4:06 currently stuck on this one. I’m not sure how to get that single punch after that second command. Leo Keeps doing that spiny punch when Eve I try to apply the command

[@kuchiku-kanzo759]

My combos are basically this. I didn't have wall combos I have to say. I like that I can see I'm on The right track

[@Madara-en9oi]

happy to hear that. if you need any help let me know :)

[@KingJaeTV]

Nice combos

[@Madara-en9oi]

Thank you bro! 🙌

[@MeepMeep193]

Just finally got the one at the end of 3:48……. Hoooorayyyyyyyy😂❤

[@Madara-en9oi]

keep at it bro. i know its pretty hard for the beginning but the earlier you learn these combos the better it will be in the future.

[@MeepMeep193]

Thank you!!!! This video has been very helpful to me thus far and I’m finding I’m linking some moves together now that I wouldn’t have before!

[@alexonstott4954]

Comprehensive guide, but why doesn't any "beginner" guide ever explain why you would even want to know more than one combo? B1, 1+2 BOK 1,2 b1+2, 1+2, qcf2 works from like every launcher. Ws1,4,1 adds more damage at the wall. What's the point of all these other routes?

[@Madara-en9oi]

Yeah true i didnt explain it, only showing it. The Thing is b1+2 1+2 qcf2 doesnt wallsplat from far so its only for max damage in the open while other options carry to the wall etc. Same thing wall combos. There are some that do more damage but gives you worse options afterwards because of the recovery and other options that are better for it

[@alexonstott4954]

@@Madara-en9oi appreciate it! Might be a cool new video to talk about those aspects, kind of like how jst did with Lars: kzbin.info/www/bejne/o2rEYnR9o7OLj5Ysi=3ahLlS_OK269HI-9

[@rrdk_back]

Hey great video! Im having trouble with qcf3 after uf2,1 it feels like i cant get it out as fast as in the video any tips?

[@Madara-en9oi]

Yeah that one is probably the hardest combo leo has. The timing is very strict and the input has to come out at the end just before the opponent hits the floor. You dont have much time so its very strict

[@rrdk_back]

thanks for the reply I thought i was missing smth other than timing :)@@Madara-en9oi

[@Nimblo-py4zd]

Danke für die Hilfe, bin noch ein Noob! Beherrschst du all diese Combos?

[@Madara-en9oi]

ja ich hab alle combos im kopf. wenn man lange genug spielt speichert man das alles ab xD

[@randallhallii7315]

Thanks bro

[@w2rdog]

can you describe leo’s playstyle for me? i like them but i’m more of a neutral/defensive player and idk if theyre like that

[@Madara-en9oi]

Leo is a mix of all of it. Good at counter hit tools, good mixups and decent poking and keepout. To be succsfull with leo you need the perfect balance of all of this in my opinion. I might do a Video about this.

[@w2rdog]

@@Madara-en9oi hmm okay thank you sm for the info 🙏🏾

Great video :D

[@ryankleinpoelhuis3852]

yo how do i do that leo thing where you extend with middles

[@back-fisch5517]

What does CH, WS, CD etc. Mean? Tekken 8 is the first fighting game I really wanna learn so I'm a giga noob lol. Wanna main and learn Leo cuz of his cool looking movement x)

[@Madara-en9oi]

Yeah for sure i can help out on this one. CH is Counter Hit WS means While Standing that is when you hold your crouch button then let go of it and press one of the face buttons. when it says CD it normally means Crouch Dash which is a quarter circle forward motion which is kinda like a stance but in the case of leo you can just hold down forward on some moves to automatically transition into itl when it comes to bok and knk these are just short cuts for bokuhou and kin kei which are the 2 stances used by leo. If you have any other questions please let me know. When it comes to Leo im also trying to make a Guide so stay tuned ^^

[@back-fisch5517]

@@Madara-en9oi Thank you very much! I'm looking forward for your guide then :)

[@SJH-cr3sl]

Is iWS just that hard to do? I find it very inconsistent to actually land in combos

[@Madara-en9oi]

the combo with iws is very hard and strict and i would not recommended it for the beginning. i just wanted to include it so that people know about it but the timing is very strict and has to be inputted very late before the opponent hits the ground

[@SJH-cr3sl]

@@Madara-en9oiYeah thats what it seemed like. Is there another move that can pick up after that string?

[@Madara-en9oi]

you can either do d4,2 for a mini combo or you do 2+3 so basically heat burst for a combo afterwards.@@SJH-cr3sl

[@katoblue6282]

Dude what’s the move after DF2 @6:42

[@Madara-en9oi]

its f2,4 into d/f

[@BLOODINMYHENNY]

i cant figure out how to crouch cancel so fast. what are you pressing after back 1,4, downforward to get the cancel. im hitbox btw

[@Madara-en9oi]

Yeah its basically pressing down forward and then up like a sidestep and then continue with the next move. Timing id key here. You have to find the timing at which you can press up to cancel the downforward Crouch dash. Comes with practice.

[@dunguy8606]

What's the song from your combo video 3:43

[@Madara-en9oi]

Its edge of spring from the game tekken 6 (also called Mystical forest)

[@KyleEscario]

Hello I was curious cc and cd meant in the combo notations

[@Madara-en9oi]

cc means Crouch cancel so basically press up for that. And cd means Crouch dash which is a quarter circle Input forward on your d pas / stick

[@KyleEscario]

@@Madara-en9oi ohhhh thank you so much i wasn't getting any of the combos. I will give them a go again

[@Madara-en9oi]

@@KyleEscario No worries. Also in the Combos i listed if you input down forward on your pad you will automatically transition into a crouch dash Motion after certain moves like f4

[@U3PLAYA]

So how exactly do u cancel the movement after b14?

[@Madara-en9oi]

You have to press down forward to go into the crouch dash Motion quickly then tap up for a sidestep and then you can do b1 1+2

[@WorldOfWeebcraft]

He looks like shulk from xenoblade

[@OJxT]

Great 🙏🏼

[@Cardhats]

What does CC mean and how do I do that?

[@TEcho-Music]

Crouch Cancel

[@Cardhats]

@@TEcho-Music thanks for telling me

[@nuallen255]

nice

[@Kunai96]

what does CC mean?

[@Madara-en9oi]

it means crouch cancel. so in the case of that combo you have to press down forward after b1,4 and then press up like a sidestep to cancel that and then you can do b1,1+2 afterwards

[@zerokiller70]

Yo if possible can you break this video into subsections like normal hit combos, CH, heat combos, etc. it’s better for beginners like me to digest these amount of combos if so.

[@Madara-en9oi]

Tried my best to split the video. Hope it helps now.

[@jackofalltrades5238]

how to crouch cancel?

[@Madara-en9oi]

you have to press up to do that. so in the case of b1,4 you have to first press df to get the crouch dash and then up like a sidestep to cancel the dash

whats a bok

[@Madara-en9oi]

Bok is one of Leo's stances. its where leo goes down quiet a lot and it has followup moves from it. manually you get it by pressing d1+2 or for example if you do b1, 1+2 yoz can hold down to transition into BOK.
